Best Song on Diddy - Dirty Money's "Last Train to Paris"

i still haven't stopped going O_O at "Yeah Yeah You Would"

I kinda have, mostly cause its a danja production - idk why but most of his songs sound too 'clean' to me, could use a little more scuzz or something

still looks like nobody has told diddy he can't dance yet

weird, he was dancing before he did anything else iirc

^^recommend this remix!

"Your Love" may not be flattered much in the context of LTTP but on the radio it really stands out and sounds bold, even just compared to all the other Trey Songz songz getting airplay.

I love how much good music is coming out of this project! Esp. since it initially seemed like it was going to be a one-off thing.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i know i fucked up
i know i fucked up
i know i fucked up

that's not my favourite song on it, but i love that part.

that is amazing xp

diddy's obsession with sade is amaaaaazing.

yooo

I know right

the "yeah yeah you would" drums are so O_O

also "no ordinary love" is the shit

i still don't know how i slept so much on the switch up on "strobe lights"

yeah the last minute of that is exquisite

diddy's obsession with sade is amaaaaazing.

One of the moments I remember feeling happiest last year was lying on a banana lounge at some "beach bar" in Nice (and paying through the nose for the privilege, as you do), getting drunk on beer in the afternoon, Sade's Best Of playing on loop over the stereo. I like to think Diddy had a similar experience that inspired some of this.

this fucking album

diddy's obsession with sade is amaaaaazing.

i like sade too, so do lots of people, she had one of the best-selling albums of 2010 for fuck's sake! don't get why diddy's obsession is amazing? it just kinda puts him in the company of millions of sade fans. unless we're talking in comparison to other hip-hop artists in 2010-11, in which case he's clearly quite vocal about his love.

whenever we talk about diddy we're definitely comparing him to every other american citizen

"i'm not sure why you guys are so caught up on biggie and tupac's death? it just kinda puts them in the company of billions of dead people."

Big Boi loves Kate Bush which is always remarked upon but unlike Diddy vis a vis Sade he hasn't made direct reference to it in 3 separate tracks.

haha holy shit @ Soho "Hot Music" 'diddy remix' of hello good morning

hearing T.I. rap over "Hot Music" is some kind of weird mash-up of my circa '04 music obsessions

except for how the verse is terrible

this fucking album

otm

the greatest compliment i can pay this album is that it manages to elevate a straight grocery bag verse from justin timberlake into something transcendent

lol i skip "shades" and "angels" and end the album at "change" and it's perfect

SB'd

the greatest compliment i can pay this album is that it manages to elevate a straight grocery bag verse from justin timberlake into something transcendent

that verse is so amazing. i mean a huge part of it is the humour though, timberlake sounds like he's taking the piss out of grocery bags because we all know grocery bags are terrible, right? and the song's entire persona is this superstar who's kind of awkward on a human level

i mean every JT grocery bag just makes me burst out laughing

Yes but I don't think he's laughing.

i think he's being intentionally ridiculous

like i don't think even JT thinks "we can press rewind, press rewind...VHS" is a properly great line (but it's still amazing)

Well I don't think he thinks it's artistry, but I think he's taking the piss out of grocery bagging either.

Somewhere in between: I think he recognises that grocery bagging is just ridiculous enough that he too can play that game.

don't think he's taking... I mean.

yeah i'd agree w/that

I do agree (or at least I think this is what you're getting at) that there's a difference there which means that you don't feel like he's trying to pass off grocery bagging as great rapping, which then makes it easier to love for its ridiculousness.

minor thing but do y'all read the lyric "I hate that you love me / so much, boy" as "I hate so much that you love me" or "I hate that you love me so much"

the latter but kinda both
